Biography
Hi, my name is Perrin and I am 11 years young. Foster Mom says I am playful, cuddly, very docile, and have the softest fur! I love soft toys and if you engage me I will play with them a lot! Check it out this video to see how playful I am:

I get along really well with men, women, and other dogs my size. Cats? Don't care for them. I'm not able to go up or down stairs, so it would help me a lot if you could pick me up if you have any stairs. Other than that, I get around just fine and at my own pace. Long walks are not my thing, but I love running around the house chasing after my toys!

We have been working on potty training and I have made some great progress. I never have pee accidents, just a poop here and there very infrequently, but my foster parents are so crazy about me they don't mind one bit! I'm that awesome!

Foster Mom and Dad say I am an amazing dog and for the right adopter who will be a patient and will love me for all of my good qualities, which are considerable. After I get over my first little shy moments, we will begin to love each other very much. You can certainly look forward to long, lazy days of some of the best cuddling you've ever encountered, interspersed with quick bursts of surprisingly high energy playing!

Foster Mom has plenty of other adorable pictures of me, so we hope to hear from you soon. By the way, although I sleep just fine in my crate, I sure would love to sleep in the big bed with you just like I do with my foster parents! What can I say? Cuddling is my thing!
